Mark Cuban considering run for president

(JTA) – The Jewish owner of the Dallas Mavericks of the National Basketball Association said he is “considering” a run for president. Mark Cuban, 59, who calls himself an Independent, said in a podcast released Tuesday, Oct. 3, that he is “Considering, yes. Ready to commit to it, no,” to a White House run for 2020. He appeared on the podcast of Bakari Sellers, an attorney and former South Carolina congressman, the Washington Post reported.

“If I can come up with solutions that I think people can get behind, and truly solve problems, then it makes perfect sense for me to run. If it comes down to, do I think I can win because I can convince more people to vote for me? Then no, I won’t run.”

A billionaire from Dallas, Cuban regularly appears as an investor on the ABC reality series Shark Tank.
